Apparently Parish isn't keen on the multi-club ownership model. I also suspect that he sees an opportunity to obtain a much bigger club, with greater potential, than Palace for a bargain price...assuming he can re-structure our debt and we get the stadium finished.

Lets hope that's because we've bought by wealthy new owners rather than having gone into liquidation before he can sell Palace!!

I suspect this won't happen because we need a sale ASAP. However, it's good to hear someone else being interested and actively referring to us as a club everyone should be interested in buying! Hopefully there are others who will be thinking along the same lines!

“Yes (I’ve had conversations around buying Everton),” Textor told The Athletic. “With the existing constituents – different groups, different lenders, different equity holders. “I’ve asked them ‘is there a way to solve all this confusion and address everyone’s problems?’ I’m very open-minded to...

There is an existing isolation structure at the southern end of the water channel, between BMD and Nelson Dock. This is basically a sheet piled structure with pipes through to allow the passage of water and aquatic life. The pipes are below the water level so not visible. It was originally...

If that's the case then it sounds like Moshiri is doing everything he can to get the 777 deal over the line, by sorting out alternative finance to pay MSP off. Surely that wouldn't satisfy the Premier League? I'd have thought the stipulation that the MSP loan is paid off is more to do with...

That worries me, but surely they can't just swap one loan for another one? It still makes it a massively leveraged deal.

Why would R&M or MSP agree to take a haircut when between them they have sufficient security to cover their debt? Not happening IMO. The only people taking a haircut are Moshiri and 777.

They don't have sufficient wealth required to own a Premier League club. That being said, these are exactly the types of people we should have as non-executive directors, proper business people who also happen to be blues. Them along with the likes of Sir Terry Leahy, Mark Carney and Andy...

What 'false brick look? The facade is made of real bricks.

Maybe we're all doing him a great disservice and he's a genius after all!? lol lol

I sometimes think this is part of some great big masterplan to get the stadium funded & finished due to the issues we've had obtaining mainstream finance...and then I realise it's Moshiri we're dealing with!

Says that their stake was written down to 'close to zero', so assume that means they got nothing.

Couldn't be sure, I tried scanning the Main Stand but was difficult to tell from where I was sat. It didn't look like it but couldn't say for certain.

Yeah, pretty certain that's what it's for.

I'll guarantee that is what 777 were/are in discussions with BlueOwl Capital for. Selling a stake in the stadium to generate the funds they need to complete the takeover. BlueOwl will have no interest in owning a football club. However, they would, i imagine, be interested in a property deal...

In your opinion, would this person/ group be a better option than 777? Obviously it wouldn't take much for them to be, but is it someone we could all get behind?

It wouldn't because MSP as an entity would hold the majority of the shares, not Moshiri as an individual. So despite Moshiri holding some shares in the MSP consortium, it wouldn't make him majority shareholder of the club.

Most probably. That being said, I think there's more chance of Putin being disposed of and replaced with a 'friendlier replacement' than us being bought out by some wealthy owner/ consortium and making us competetive.

Well I didn't necessarilly mean getting Usmanov back involved, the war in Ukraine is having a negative effect on all manor of things, one of which is undoubedtly Moshiri's access to cash due to his investments in Russian related companies. Usmanov may continue to be a sanctioned individual but...
